JOAN’S POVPersonal maid?What does he even meant by personal maid. I used to be a maid in palace before I left so I obviously understood what a maid is and what she does, but the term personal maid is something I was finding hard to grasped, so I asked.“Whatever you meant by that?” Alpha Rex looked between me and the figure that was coming towards us through the other end of the hallway. It was his right hand man,Tyler.“You see being a maid is common thing but being a personal maid is an entirely different thing. Maids work for the whole palace yes but personal maids work for the person they are assigned to only. So you will work in the palace but only in my chamber, carry out every single thing that involved me” Alpha Rex explained.The concept of a personal maid is not a new thing to me, what is new and confusing to me is the fact that he wants me to be his personal maid. Why would he want that? “I am simply a maid here, nothing more nothing less. And if you expect anything mor

JOAN’S POVI winced for the umpteenth time at Stephen’s harsh words. So far I had managed to get Iris to calm down but just like I pictured, Stephen is proving hard to deal with. She just wasn’t ready to deal with whatever bullshit I was spatting.“Do you even hear yourself right now? Do you hear what you are saying? Is that an excuse? What are you trying to say?” She asked, her voice filled with bitterness.“Hey just listen to me okay? I know I what I did was not fair but please try to put yourself in my shoes. Wouldn’t you have done the same?” I questioned, from the other side of the room.When I left the palace, I head straight to Iris’s house and coincidentally, Stephen was there also. At first they were all shocked which was understandable owing to the fact that I just came out of no where and then after they made sure I was fine and well doing great, they began to question where I have been. I told them the truth cause I knew lying was not the way out.After a very sincere apolo
REX’S POVI left her with Tyler with the thought that he would at least right my wrongs. I never had the intention to make the conversation like this but it did and there was nothing I could do.She is my mate there is no dying to that but she had to know her position and she had to know that I am an Alpha. I had no problem taking in whatever bullshit she had to spit but I cannot allow her disrespect me in public, this will not only cause problem for her but also for me too, as disrespecting the Alpha is not supposed to go unpunished according to the law.I banged my door behind me, muttering all sort of curses. I shoved away my bedside lantern as I drop down on my bed. I ran my hand through my disheveled hair, the urge to destroy everything slowly taking over me.I could feel my wolf lurking at the back of my mind, begging to be let out. Wanting nothing but to go back there and correct everything I did wrong. To right my messed up words but I fought it hard, knowing very well this is
REX’S POV“There had to be another way which we can confront this. Whatever you are suggesting is not the right way to do that” I said to an elderly council member rubbing the side of my head, trying to get rid of the headache that was beginning to form.“I agreed with his highness. What you are suggesting will do nothing but make the situation only worst than it is now” another agreed and more murmurs followed in agreement.“This situation is unlike anyone we have ever seen before so I suggest the solution we would decide to invoke should be something we have not done before. Starting early with the wrong park can cause us a lot of troubles and what not so we will have to follow this bit by bit and make sure we have the right culprit at hand before taking any action” I added, looking at every single person in the room in their eyes.There was an attack in a small village across the west part of the forest. The culprits burnt down houses and injured a lot of local farmers but fortunat
JOAN’S POVI groaned, lazily stretching as Iris forced me out of the bed and the room in general. For a moment, I regretted letting her know of my plans yesterdays. I would have just omitted that part and not show up at the palace for my assigned duty.But I did and now I am up early in the morning, nursing a cup of hot coffee to wipe away the remaining sleep from my eyes.My eyes trailed behind her as she giddily move around the room, setting everything in order while chatting about how some of the other maids will be over the moon to see me. My mind however was far away from her, thinking about a particular sharp eyes that wears an emotionless look almost all the time.Off all the numerous things to think about, for some reason, my brain decided to think of him at this time of the day.I raised my head from the cup of coffee in my hand and my vision collided with that of Iris, looking expectantly at me. I shrugged my shoulder in a questioning kind of way.“Seriously? Are you even li
JOAN’S POVI saw relief wash over his face but it was so sudden that I thought I might have imagined it. He looked behind me as if expecting me to show up with someone then his vision landed on mine forcing me to instantly looked away.He shifted away from the door and went deeper into the room leaving me waiting stranded at the door. Was I supposed to go in or wait here. I decided to do the later and stood by the door, folding my hands in front of my chest.He picked up a piece of clothing on the way and only stopped to turn back when he realised I was not behind him. He looked at the space behind him then at the open door which was my clue that I was meant to go in.I hesitantly stepped into the room, one step at a time until I was safely close to him. I came to an abrupt stop with my head bowed, I waited for him to state whatever it was he wanted me to do.But he did not talk instead he continued on his track into the room. He picked up another piece of clothing on the bed and then
JOAN’S POVWhen I stepped into the room, Alpha Rex was sitting on a chair at the far end of the room with a tray of food in the table in front of him.He was slowly chewing the food in his mouth, his attention on a file in his hand. Even when I opened the door, he did not turn away from the file, he seemed to be so engrossed in it but I had a feeling he knew who walked into the room.That he did because he addressed me without even looking up. “This is your first day so I am going to let this one lateness slid but be warned cause there won’t be no next time” he sluggishly muttered.I wanted to defend myself, to argue that it was not my fault the food was delivered to him before I reached the kitchen but I thought the better of it. There is no need for that since I had already be forgiven.I rolled my eyes and continued assuming my standing form for over five minutes while I watched him eat his food like I had no better thing to do with my time. Deciding on how to pass time, my attent
*Rex's POV*I stared at the other person who appeared to be a man. He noticed I was curious about who he was and finally spoke up. “you don't remember me do you” He asked. It didn't take too much of thinking to realize who he was. He was the one who attempted to kill me at the Bridge. “So this is the one that really owns the baby. He's quite pathetic for someone with a child ” I said to Gwen.Martin fumed up. “Who are you calling a pathetic person. Do you have a death wish?. Even if you don't, I am finally going to make sure I kill you properly This time” He said and brought out his gun Wich he aimed at me again. I sighed and shook my head in disappointment. “So you're going to take the cowardice way out again. You are really pathetic, no doubt about that” I said mockingly. Martin paused for a while pondering on what to say. Gwen noticed what was going on and tried to stop him. “What are you doing Martin. Shoot him now and end this finally ” She said. Martin took a deep breath and
*Beta Ryder's POV*I have gotten the answer I've been searching for. There was finally enough evidence I could use this to get Joan out of prison. “Why did you get your hands on such dirty deeds when you also had your own child” i asked Collins who didn't say anything in return. I sighed and brought out my phone to stop recording the conversation. “What is your own aim trying to help your old lover. You must be after something too” Collins suddenly asked. I was shocked to see he knows about I and Joan too. He must know me from somewhere.He smirked when he saw the look on my face. “ You're shocked I know about that. You must not really remember who I am..” he said and chuckled. I could now remember who he was. Gwen and I had visited him long ago when we were still working together. “I don't care what you have to say now. I finally have what I've been searching for. There's nothing else to worry about anymore” I said and turned to leave. Collins quickly stopped me. “Where is my da
*Gwen's POV*I had returned back home from the inn and was heading to my room to grab a few things. Everything seemed to be finally over now and Everyone that could get in my way was out of the picture. Rex's mother won't pose a threath anymore as she'll only shed endless tears on her son's death. I reached my doorstep to see the door was slightly left open. “Huh, did I forget to shut this before leaving..” I thought to myself. I ignored it and pushed the door open. The sight I saw next made move back in shock. Rex was standing and holding something that I hadn't identified yet. “what is. Going on, am I seeing a ghost or just hallucinating?” I asked myself. Rex turned to me and I could see despise on his face. It was now I realized what he was holding. He had unfortunately found the File which had the real DNA test results. “Rex..are you okay” I asked softly. He turned to me and still wasn't saying anything. My whole body was quivering in fear as he moved closer to me. He threw t
*Gwen's POV*I was in a inn with my secret lover, Martin. after taking an excuse that I had some things to sought out, I had left my bay with Rex's mother. We had fun and was relaxing on the bed. “will things go on like this forever. You And I deserve to be with each other officially ” Martin stated. I rose up and stared at him. I asked him what he means. “Rex Is clearly in our way. We need to get rid of him first and then I can claim my rightful place by your side” He stated. He was right, Rex wasn't even the real father of our baby and if I let things stay like that forever, he might find out someday. But I was scared. After everything I've done. I am scared to harm another person. “I don't know if it's a good idea. He isn't one to go down easily. I've heard of how he defeated Alpha Jerome with ease. He's too strong to defy” I stated. “Do not worry about that. I will personally take care of Rex myself. With your approval ” Martin stated. I saw it as a good opportunity to finall
*Eleanor's POV*Beta Ryder had suddenly showed up again but this time, He came with a child. It was a little girl and it made no sense she was here with him. He seemed pretty determined to find an evidence but now, he's with a child. I turned to the little girl to ask who she was. “ I'm Nia, This Mister abducted me..Those are the answers to the questions you wanted to ask aren't they?” She asked. I Petrified by her boldness and the fact she said she was abducted scared me more.“Why did you abduct a girl and decided to bring her here. Do you want to get me in more troubles again!?” I yelled angrily. Ryder was scared to see me angry. He tried calming me down saying everything was going to be okay. “I went to the address you gave me and it turns out The person that sold the cake to Gwen is her father. Left with no choice, I had to abduct her. He has agreed to meet and I'll return the girl once we get what we're searching for” He said. I Finally calmed down. A way to avenge my friend
*Collins's POV*My heart almost flew out through my mouth when I heard my little girl's voice on the phone. It dawned on me when I realized that she had been abducted. “What I this, what do you think you're doing. Why did you abduct my daughter you Psychopath!” i Yelled angrily. “You left me with no choice Collins. We'll meet and you'll tell me everything I want to know or else..you know what will happen. And do not bother trying to contact the police, you'll regret doing so” The man stated. I was so frustrated with the way he was been so commanding. “ I'll give you Two hours to return my daughter. If you don't, I'll unleash hell on your feeble soul” I yelled angrily. He had already ended the call and I was just talking to myself the whole time. I threw the phone away angrily. “What does he want. Who in the world is this lowlife daring to disturb my peace!” I said angrily. “was he here to find out something about one of the people I've once worked for!?” I asked myself. It was the
*Beta Ryder's POV*I left back for my inn. The paper given to me by the maid had the name of a shop written on it. I wasn't sure it would be easy finding the shop but was sure I will after asking around. The shop was located a little far from the main town. I set out the next morning to find the shop. After driving to the address on the paper, I Reached there and the shop was no longer there. I already expected that too. That was why I knew this was going to be hardInstead of a cake shop, there was a different type of shop now. It was now a pawn shop. I decided to walk into the shop and ask the owner some few questions. Entering the shop, the first room was empty but there was another door. I walked to it and knocked. Footsteps approached the door and it finally swung open. “Come in. a man, that looked much older than me said ” I took a deep breath and walked in.He offered me a seat and I sat down. “So, how much are you loaning ” He asked as he brought out some papers for me to fi
Over 9 months had passed and Beta Ryder was still yet to find a way to get Joan out. He visited her frequently to make her feel reassured. *Beta Ryder's POV*It's been so long since I infiltrated Rex's house. I was never able to meet the maid again. She told me there was a way to find a tangible evidence but I couldn't get it from her before the guards drove me away. The security at his house was thightened after that time and it was almost impossible to get In. But still, I found my way In without been noticed. I came in as a delivery man and thankfully, they fell for it. I searched around for the maid but no one realized who I was talking about. After a long search, I asked one of the staffs about the night the house was infiltrated by a man and she told me the maid was fired that same night. For months, I have been waiting for a Moment to meet someone who wasn't where I thought they were!. I asked if she knows her whereabouts but she told me she doesn't know much anymore. I wa
A week later. Joan was taking to court where she was to be judged. The whole pack was present so as many other people from the town.The evidences were provided and the judge gave his judgement.
